to examine for themselves, l subjoin a
condensed statement of the receipts and
expenditures of the funds referred to by
Taxpayer, and it will be seen hat they
balance exactly. As the statement has
always been published, the itemized part
of it refers only to warrants issued during
the year, while the sum total only of the
warrants paid during the year is given
under what is headed recapitulation. I
belieye the form of the statement might
be greatly improved upon and made much
clearer. to those of us who are not "finan.
cial experts" like Taxpayer and the
the Courier, but that is something which
must be left to our county fathers.

Sound Logic.

Many ofthe people of this section have
taken more or less interest in the
oleomargarine subject and the law aftec-
ting the manufacture and sale of the
same. These people will find in the
May Century a readable article on this
subject by Prof. Atwater, of Wesleyan
University, and from whose paper we
quote the following:-
"In a number of States in which the
dairy interests are large. the manufacture
and sale of butter substitutes has been
prohibited by legislative action. In other
states laws have been enacted to regu-
late their sale and prevent fraud. An
attempt was made in Congress to check
the manufacture and sale by taxation
sufficient to bring their cost nearly up
to that of butter. In the law Rs actually
passed, however, the tax was very much
reduced. so that while 1t may help
toward preventing improper sale Of but.
ter substitutes and, by obliging sellers to
pay high license fees, may considerably
interfere with their general use, it will
not bo as eaqctiye in excluding them
from the markets as was desired. This
is a case where mechanical invention
aided by science is enabled to furnish a
cheap, wholesome, and nutritious food
for the people. Legislation to provide
for official inspection of this, as of other
food products, and to insure hat it shall
be sold for what it is and not for what
it is not, is very desirable. Every rea.
sonable measure to prevent ftau,I, here
as elsewhere, ought to be welcomed.
But the attempt to curtail or suppress
the production of cheap and useful food
material by law, lest the profits which a
class, the producers of butter. have en-
joyed from the manufacture of a ~costlier
article may be diminished, is opposed to
the interests of a large body ~ofpeople. to
the spirit of our institutions, and to the
plainest dictates of Justice"

Seminary, who are members of that church.
found it out, and Immediately decided that they
were in duty bound to prevent her from singing
because of her connection with the stage in gen
era and comic opera in particular So thew
started at once to call upon various members of
the parish. and finally they made the parish
committee believe that the sentiment was de-
cidedly against the appearance of Miss Wiley in
the church choir, and Saturday night the en-
gagement was cancelled
The murmur of dissatisfaction which arose
was something astonishing, and only one or two
persons could be found, with the exception OF
the two professors. who said they had objected
to Mrs. Goldens singing. The other members
OF the choir were angry, and Rev. N. H. Harri-
man. the pastor OF the church, felt SO badly
about the affair that he did not preach and the
services at the Hammond-street church amount
ed to but little. Dora sang in the evening at
one of she Universalist churches in the city, and
nearly one thousand people were turned away,
unable to gain admittance. 1t has been report
ed that she will sue one Of the professors for
Islander.
The sympathy of the people here is almost
wholly with the lady, and they are very indig-
nant at the treatment which she has received
She sings here to packed houses. and this affair
will give her even moro prominence.
